Reasons We are Truly Uncool: ("We" being the Goods, Kevin, and Me)
1) We've been planning for weeks to go to Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban on opening night, come hell or high water.
2) We make a huge deal about sneaking snacks into the theater, as if we are being oh so naughty!
3) We are giddy and gleeful to be the VERY FIRST PEOPLE in the WHOLE THEATER to see Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
4) 20 minutes later we are still THE ONLY PEOPLE in the WHOLE THEATER to see Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. (Maybe seeing Harry Potter on opening night isn't the hip thing to do that we thought it was.)
5) We spend that entire 20 minutes excitedly talking about how cool it would be to be the only Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban patrons. (Well, not the entire 20 minutes. A good few minutes were dedicated to giggling accounts of what the wet sticky spot was on the seat next to N.Good...we were in the back row, after all)
6) Come to think of it, is it still cool to yell, "BACK ROW, BACK ROW!!" and sprint clear to the back to claim as much of the back row as possible?
7) When the movie was over we all made comments such as,
--What time is it? We're out late!
--Midnight? It's after MIDNIGHT?!
--Man, we're out SO late!
--Oh, no! I have to get up at 7:00 in the morning!
--I'm not tired, dude.
--But you didn't get up as early as me.
--Ok, but you weren't on your feet all day.
--That was the best movie IN THE WORLD!
--Let's go see Harry Potter again tomorrow.
--Let's go home and re-read Harry Potter, THEN come see it again!
--Yeah! Let's re-read and it see it again!!
Need I say more?
